I was talking to one of my friends over the weekend about how running keeps us sane. I am not exactly sure why, but “running it out” seems to be a very effective way to decrease stress or to get your mind in the right place. When I am overwhelmed with grad school and work or any of the curve balls that life occasionally throws at me - running centers me. When you run your heart out and you finish, you have a great sense of calm (maybe from being too tired to be anxious). If you are feeling stressed out, hit the pavement. It can make a big difference.
